Susanne Bier makes some excellent movies, this isn't one of them but still it was a good movie. It needed something to make it a great movie but overall watchable and enjoyable. Worth watching. I didn't even know it was a book, so maybe that helped me enjoy it.Susanne Bier makes some excellent movies, this isn't one of them but still it was a good movie.

For me the story of this movie was nothing special. The acting was excellent but the scenery of the area was fantastic. I also enjoyed seeing how Turkish people live and interact. I felt the movie was long and some scenes took so long to get going, the scene when the wife goes to drop off the money to the renter was excruciating long!! Overall, this movie is worth the watch but you must be patient and realize nothing is going to happen in this movie.For me the story of this movie was nothing special.

This is an excellent documentary on studio musicians. If you like music you will like this documentary. The only grip is that they should have played all the songs longer, 20-30 seconds or so.

Nothing special here. Everyone told me the second is better than the first, that is not the case. I didn't find both movies scary but found the first one original and entertaining. After 30 minutes, this movie doesn't pick up at all and is just dull and boring. Don't bother.Nothing special here. Everyone told me the second is better than the first, that is not the case.

This is a very good movie. Although sleazy in the movie, Orlando Bloom is excellent and his accent is pretty good. Forest Whitaker is also excellent. My only negative points are that the ending was weak and the lack of sub titles made it very hard to hear at times. Worth the watch. But be warned, this is a very violent movie and not violent in the Hollywood way but in a real world way.This is a very good movie.

Very surprised with this movie, other than the snake part in the movie, this was really good. Surprised Ryan Reynolds needed a flashlight to see in the dark, his pearly white teeth can be seen from outer space!!! Worth the watch.

The first 30 minutes of the movie is decent. Then it spirals out of control to become poor garbage. Unless you are sci-fi addict, give this one a pass. However, if you do like bad haircuts then this is the movie for you. Hugh Jackman with the mullet is hilarious.The first 30 minutes of the movie is decent.

Very slow paced movie. Could have been shortened to 30 minutes. Nothing special here. There are much better psychological thrillers out there than this one.

I was expecting more from this movie. Instead I got a commando\Rambo type movie. Terrible writing, very far fetched and just stupid at times. If you want to relive the 80's for these two guys then watch this movie.

Totally shocked how much I liked this movie. More about the two characters than racing and wow are these characters polar opposites. Very well done. Amazing how much they look like the real characters. Well worth the watch.

Great subject matter with good acting but overall poorly executed. Not having a time frame is annoying, especially since some scenes are months between them but could have been hours in the film. Worth the watch just don't expect too much from it.

Yes the Austrians should have handed back the painting, end of story. This was really drawn-out in order to make a movie. Sorry nothing special here. Who really cares, a story about a painting worth millions, there are so many more important stories out there.Yes the Austrians should have handed back the painting, end of story.

Ditto to what geomillar said. Also, super slow movie. Watched the last 20-30 minutes fast forwarded and they only a said a couple of lines to each other. Don't bother.

This is a very good movie. If you work in the mental health industry you may want to give it a pass (this is your job on film). You will not feel happy after this movie, very real and gritty.

This movie can be a tad slow at times but overall I thought this was an excellent movie. A combination of the Punisher and the Salton Sea. A terrible one man vs all ending but still worth the watch.

I was surprised how much I enjoyed this movie after the last hobbit movie which was awful. The battle scenes where drawn out as expected but there was some good concepts and imagination to it. Still, this is a long movie but watchable.

I thought this movie was good but not great. Something missing for me. This movie felt more of a high end twilight zone or outer limits show than an actual movie. Also, some parts of the movie where extremely unrealistic, like the part when John Voight dies, where are the secret service??? Not bad but could have been better.I thought this movie was good but not great. Something missing for me. This movie felt more of a high end twilight zone or outer limits show than an actual movie.

This movie is OK. For me, the most interesting part of the movie was how much effort the Pakistan government put into the search for him. Other than that not really that exciting since we already know the outcome.

Don’t bother with this movie. This is such a strange, bizarre and very long movie. The performances are good but it’s just a movie not worth watching.
